Forward Pictures

Forward Pictures is a production company, which we founded back in 2008 with one purpose only – to make movies. Filmmaking is not just our profession – it’s our way of life. For the past seven years we gain a lot of experience in the independent moviemaking and in the show business in general. Also we gather a crew of professionals with solid background in the movie industry. Together we put maximum efforts and passion in every project. We are familiar with the filmmaking process and the movie market. Our main goal is to provide a high quality entertainment for the audience.

Our most powerful weapons are creativity and persistence.

We turn movie ideas into projects and run these projects from pen to screen.
